Reflections—The Emerging Literature on Emissions Trading in Europe (2008, background): “Concerning the grandfathering versus auctioning debate, Burtraw (2001) provides an overview of the issues involved, with one respondent noting: “There are several academic papers that carry a similar message, but I think this discussion paper does a particularly good job of explaining effects of…”
Designing Climate Mitigation Policy (2010, background): “As a result, incentives for electricity conservation could be a lot weaker, resulting in a significant loss of cost-effectiveness, compared with upstream programs or downstream programs with full allowance auctioning (Burtraw et al. 2001).”
Instrument Choice in Environmental Policy (2008, unknown): “In this setting, Burtraw et al. (2001) find that the costs of moderately reducing power plant emissions of CO2 are about two-thirds lower under auctioned permits than under the performance standards.”
Implementing greenhouse gas trading in Europe: lessons from economic literature and international experiences (2002, background): “On the other hand, Burtraw et al. (2001) partial equilibrium simulations of the electricity generation sector in the U.”
Allocation, incentives and distortions: the impact of EU ETS emissions allowance allocations to the electricity sector (2006, background): “This literature gives support for the argument that allocation indeed matters: the choice of allocation mode has distributional effects, but also consequences for efficiency and hence the overall costs of emissions abatement (Burtraw et al., 2001, 2002).”
Carbon pricing versus emissions trading: A supply chain planning perspective (2015, methodology): “Some emissions allocation methods have been proposed and investigated (Böhringer and Lange, 2005; Burtraw et al., 2001; Cramton and Kerr, 2002 ).”

Carbon allowance auction design of China's emissions trading scheme: A multi-agent-based approach (2017, background): “Similarly, Burtraw et al. (2001) confirmed the superiority of the single-round auction over the clock auction, in terms of high revenue.”
Distributional and Efficiency Impacts of Clean and Renewable Energy Standards for Electricity (2012, background): “…a subsidy to electricity prices either because the CAT regulation explicitly aims at sheltering some electricity consumers or because the intent of the legislation to have electricity prices reflect the full CO2 costs is frustrated by Public Utility Commission’s rate setting (Burtraw et al., 2001).”
Are Emissions Permits Regressive (2004, methodology): “…a reasonable approximation for carbon emission reductions up to about 30%, SO2 reductions up to about 85% and NOx reductions up to about 60% (see Burtraw et al. 2001, Figure 2, and Banzhaf et al. 2002, Figures 2a and 2b).22 When fully phased in, Title IV of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments…”

COST-EFFECTIVENESS OF RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY POLICIES (2005, background): “13 An important consideration in determining the effect of this implicit subsidy is the way in which prices are determined and the nature of regulation at the state level (Burtraw et al. 2001).”
